For thirty years we have offered an undergraduate concentration in historical, critical and theoretical studies; with the advent of the Graduate Programme twenty years ago, we opened a mas- ters-level concentration as well. We now offer within the depart- ment both B.A. and M.A. degrees in film studies, and members of our faculty are cross-appointed to other graduate programmes within the university offering cross-disciplinary doctoral study in film (Philosophy; Political Science; Social & Political Thought). Among our faculty are internationally-recognised scholars in Canadian film, Russian and Soviet film history and theory, classi- cal film theory, political and social film analysis, and film and philosophy. We are seeking a scholar and teacher sharing our commitment to the historical and theoretical understanding of film and video who will bring additional strength to several of the above specialities while anchoring the expansion of our pro- gramme into several of the following areas as well: documentary film and video; Canadian television and the new media technol- ogies; women, film and media; alternative film and video; Que- becois film and television; postmodernism, film and television; and Latin-American/Third-world cinema. Responsibilities of the position will include the teaching of a full- range of appropriate undergraduate and graduate courses, super- vising graduate thesis work, serving on department, faculty or university committees, student advising and curriculum assess- ment. An applicant for the position must have a doctorate in film studies or a related discipline, demonstrable achievement as a scholar and a distinguished record of teaching and supervision on both the undergraduate and graduate level. We would wel- come as well a working knowledge of both of Canada's official languages, the ability to contribute to the teaching of courses in screenwriting or production, professional experience in film or video production and the ability to support through cross- appointment one or another of the extra-departmental doctoral programmes noted above.
